Aurora Deeside vbn0331jhp Aurora Borealis Scotland photo summer Scottish green rays Deeside Aberdeenshire taken on the 27th August, 2015 at Crooktree, 25 miles west of Aberdeenand the first display since February 2014. This photograph was taken with a Nikon D700 full frame DSLR using a 24mm Nikkor f2.8 lens and ISO settings of 3200 which allows for much shorter exposure circa 6 sec average times with hopefully more accurate recordings of these moving events. The light conditions were not perfect as the background light was from the full moon but dispels any myths that Aurora’s cannot be seen under such conditions.
